Triad Hospitalists

At Cone Health, our hospitalists—doctors who specialize in caring for patients exclusively in a hospital setting—give our patients the full attention they deserve. All of our Triad hospitalists are board certified in either internal or family medicine.

Our hospitalists:

Are available on-site 24 hours a day, seven days a week.

Coordinate your care as needed with specialists in the fields of cardiology, oncology, nephrology, pulmonology, gastroenterology and surgery.

Want to be partners in your care: During your stay, our hospitalists will talk with you about your test results, specialists' opinions, future testing, treatment options and other concerns.

Partner with your primary care doctor: All the information about your hospital stay is sent to your primary care doctor beginning when you are admitted and, as necessary, throughout your hospital stay. Because our hospitalists take care of you in the hospital, your primary care doctor can give uninterrupted attention to office patients.
